Abstract

The study investigated the physiological response of broiler chickens to substitution of commer-cial vitamin-mineral premix with Carica papaya seed meal (CPS). Two hundred and twenty four (224) mixed sexes Abor – acre day old chicks were subjected to trial for 6 weeks. Data were collected on performance, haematology, serum biochemistry, serum electrolytes and organ morphology. The birds were randomly assigned to 7 dietary treatments: T1: control with commercial vitamin-mineral-premix (VMP) at 0.3% only, T2, 0.05% CPS + 0.25 VMP, T3 0.20 VMP + 0.1 CPS, T4 0.15 VMP + 0.15 CPS, T5 0.10 VMP + 0.2 CPS, T6 0.05 VMP + 0.25 CPS and T7 0.3 CPS. Treatments composed of 4 replica-tions with 8 birds per replicate. Results indicated that significant differences (p<0.05) were observed in all the treatments for WG, FCR and FI. Birds fed with 0.3% of CPS had the best FCR. At the starter phase, significant differences (p<0.05) were observed in the haematology of the birds, however, the values obtained for hemoglobin, white blood cell and eosinophils were not significantly different (p>0.05) while at the finisher phase, the inclusion of Carica papaya seed meal significantly influenced (p<0.05) the values of haematology, the values were however higher (p<0.05) at higher levels of inclu-sion except for white blood cells (WBC) and platelets counts that the control group had significantly higher (p<0.05) values. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) in serum biochemistry parameters at the starter phase except for alanine transaminase (ALT) with significantly higher (p<0.05) value at the control but significantly affected (p<0.05) all the serum biochemical parameters at the finisher phase. Birds fed CPS had significantly higher (p<0.05) values for glucose, cholesterol and low density lipoprotein (LDL). However, birds fed 0.20% CPS had significant highest (p<0.05) values for ALT, Alanine phosphatase (ALP), glucose, cholesterol, LDL and high density lipoprotein (HDL). CPS sig-nificantly influenced (p<0.05) serum electrolytes. Birds in 0.05 and 0.10% CPS inclusion groups had significantly higher (p<0.05) values for sodium, chloride and bicarbonate ions when compared to the control. There was no significant difference (p>0.05) for kidney, liver and spleen. The use of CPS did not impair nutrient utilization neither does it have any adverse effect on the health status of the broiler chickens, hence the use of CPS may be considered as substitute for vitamin-mineral premix in broiler chickens nutrition.

Abstract

This study examined the effects of unconventional feed on performance characteristics and candi-date gene expression in growing pigs of 3-5months of age. A Total of forty-five (45) growing pigs were randomly allotted into five treatments consisting of whole maize (T1), brewer’s dried grain (T2), cassava peel meal (T3), plantain peel meal (T4), and corn husk meal (T5), at 35% inclusion rate. Per-formance data were collected for 12weeks, while duodenum and liver samples were collected after the experiment for gene expression analysis. Data were analyzed in a completely randomized design. Diets significantly (p< 0.05) affected growth performance with treatment 2 recording the highest average daily weight gain of 0.21±0.02 whilecorn husk meal (T5)had the least 0.11±0.01. Feed efficiency was highest for whole maize (T1) and brewer’s dried grain (T2) (0.10±0.02) and lowest for t5 (0.07±0.17). Cost-benefit analysis were significantly different (p<0.05) with t4 recording the highest gross margin. Insulin-like growth factor1 and leptin gene were differentially expressed in tissues, while no significant differences (p>0.05) existed for growth hormone gene and ryanodine receptor1 gene. The results showed commendable gross margin, however, cognizance should be taken in the quantity of brewer’s dried grain fed to pigs since it increased the expression of ryanodine receptor 1 gene that leads to por-cine malignant hypertermia and pale soft exudates pork.

Abstract

This research was aimed to analyze antibody response in laying hens post vaccinated by Newcastle Disease Virus (NDV) recombinat Fusion (F) protein which has been succesfully expressed from the F gene of local isolates of NDV from Kulon Progo strain (0663/04/2013), Yogyakarta, Indonesia. The F gene cloned into expression vector plasmid pBT7-N-His. Two types of NDV recombinant vaccine, a concentrated and pure F recombinant protein were used for vaccination. A concentrated recombinant F protein was collected from the centrifugal ultrafiltration process and a pure recombinant F protein was collected from the electroeluted process. Recombinant F protein of NDV was successfully expressed, purified, and visualized by Sodium Dodecyl Sulphate–Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) with Coomassie Brilliant Blue staining with a molecular weight of 28 kDa. All two types of recombinant F vaccines and a commercial live vaccine as a positive control were injected two times at 14 and 18th weeks old laying hens to analyze the antibody response in serum. In comparison with a commercial live NDV vaccine, indirect Enzyme-linked Immunosorbent Assay (ELISA) revealed that antibody responses were high in both recombinant F protein vaccinated groups. In conclusion, the recombinant F protein has the potential to be developed as a recombinant vaccine candidate to obtain a higher antibody response in laying hens compared to commercially available live NDV vaccines.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to discover and identify the effect of SNP of follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) gen on prolific traits in Kejobong (KJ) and Etawah grade (EG) doe. A total of 15 blood samples were taken from 11 KJ and 4 EG with various parity and type of birth. The FSHR gene was amplified from the DNA template by Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR); the PCR products were then sequenced to determine Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNP). Results showed that 3 SNPs were identified, and those SNPs altered amino acid sequence formed 6 haplotypes and divided the doe based on the type of birth. In conclusion, SNPs identified in this study are associated with a prolific trait that can be used as a genetic marker and haplotype 3, 4, and 5 showed the highest prolific on KJ and EG doe.

Abstract

A study was conducted to determine the effect of selenium (sodium selenite) added to palm kernel cake (PKC) before fermentation on production, selenium content, and quality of eggs. The PKC was added with 0.1% sodium selenite and 1% baking yeast (Fermipan®). The mixture was added with ster-ile distilled water to increase the water content of the substrate. The substrates were fermented at room temperature for 5 days. The fermented products of selenium-rich fermented palm kernel cake (SRFPKC) were dried and fed to the laying hens. The experimental diets used were T-0: without SRF-PKC, T-1: 0.25% SRFPKC, T-2: 0.50% SRFPKC, T-3: 0.75% SRFPKC and T-4: 1.0 % SRFPKC. The diets were given to 180 laying hens aged 22 weeks for 14 weeks. Data on egg production, feed intake and feed conversion ratio were recorded. Feed digestibilities of dry matter and protein were measured based on the method of total fecal collection. Egg qualities and egg weight loss were done using eggs stored for 1 and 30 days. Selenium and cholesterol contents of eggs were also measured. This study used a completely randomized design and was analyzed by analysis of variance. The results showed that the addition of SRFPKC increased egg production, hen day, egg weight, egg selenium, feed digest-ibility, improve FCR (P<0.05) and inhibit the process of decreasing the quality and weight of eggs stored for 30 days (P<0.05). In conclusion, the addition of SRFPKC increased egg production, feed digestibility, and egg selenium, improve FCR and slow down the deterioration of egg quality stored for 30 days.

Abstract

The study was aimed to evaluate the effect of Spirulina platensis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae or its combination on egg quality, physiological condition and ammonia excretion of hens at the late lay-ing period. At 81 weeks old, 144 Lohmann Brown layer chickens were divided into four treatment groups included CON (hens fed basal feed), SP (basal feed + 0.3% S. platensis), SC (basal feed + 0.2% S. cerevisiae), and SPSC (basal feed + 0.3% S. platensis + 0.2% S. cerevisiae). At the end of the study, eggs, intestinal mucosa, digesta, excreta and blood sample were collected. Results showed that albumin index was higher (P<0.05) in SPSC group than in CON, SP and SC. The yolk index and yolk colour were greater (P<0.05) in SP and SPSC groups than in CON and SC. The erythrocyte values were high-er (P<0.05) in SP group compared to CON, SC and SPSC groups. The ileum pH was higher (P<0.05) in SP than in CON, SC and SPSC. Lactic acid bacteria counts were lower (P<0.05) in the caecum of SC and SPSC than in CON and SP groups. The lower (P<0.05) counts of lactose-negative Enterobacte-riaceae were shown in SC and SPSC than in CON. The excreta pH was lower (P<0.05) in SC group compared to CON, SP and SPSC groups. There were better (P<0.05) protein digestibility coefficient and nitrogen retention in SPSC group than others. Faecal ammonia decreased (P<0.05) in SP, SC and SPSC groups. In conclusion, S. platensis improved egg yolk index and colour, increased erythrocyte counts and played an important role in maintaining the balance of bacteria in the intestine resulting in reduced ammonia excretion. Dietary inclusion of S. cerevisiae reduced ammonia excretion of laying hens during the late laying period.

Abstract

Leptin (LEP) gene produces hormone leptin which is secreted by adipose tissue, and plays an im-portant role in energy balance, regulating feed intake, regulating endocrine function, and immune functions. This study aims to identify molecular markers of LEP gene and its association with growth traits based on SNP in Bali cattle. The blood samples were collected from 16 male and 30 female Bali cattle. The growth data were recorded from 2018 to 2020, consist of body weight and body size. Am-plification of leptin gene with polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using pair of primers, Lep-tin_3Forward: 5’- AGCTTGGAAACATGGTGGTC-3’ and Leptin_3Reverse: 5’- CATGATGCTCCCTGGATTCT-3’ with DNA target 898 bp. The SNPs were identified by the direct sequencing technique. Genotypes of the SNPs were identified using sequencing method. Association of LEP genotypes with growth traits was performed using oneway ANOVA. Three DNA polymor-phisms of the LEP gene were found, namely g.2913C/T, g.3260T/C, and g.3549G/A. SNP g.2913C/T was significantly associated (P<0,05) with weaning shoulder height (WSH), weaning body length (WBL), weaning chest circumference (WCC), yearling shoulder height (YSH), yearling body length (YBL), and yearling chest circumference (YCC). Meanwhile, SNPs g.3260T/C and g.3549G/A were not associated with the body weight and body size in Bali cattle. In conclusion, the SNP g.2913C/T can be used as molecular marker for body size in weaning and yearling of Bali Cattle.

Abstract

The objective of this study was to identify the polymorphism of Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) g.8398A>G at the prolactin gene exon 4 in Indonesian Holstein dairy cows and its effect on milk production, milk quality, and reproductive traits. A total of 140 blood samples were investigated to detect polymorphism by PCR-RFLP method using the RsaI restriction enzyme. Sequencing was per-formed for confirmation of SNP mutation points. The phenotype data collected were milk production, milk quality, and reproductive traits. Data were analyzed using a t-test. The results showed that poly-morphism of SNP g.8398A>G at prolactin gene exon 4 was found in the study populations with AG and GG genotypes. Cows with the GG genotype indicated higher total milk yield and milk protein (P<0.05) than the AG genotype. Polymorphism was not associated with specific gravity, milk fat, milk lactose, total solid non-fat, and reproductive traits. SNP g.8398A>G at prolactin gene exon 4 showed potential as a genetic marker for selecting superior milk production traits.
